Field Notes

The geometrid moths of Kalakad-Mundanthurai Tiger reserve were studied during the years 2012 to 2016. Since collection of specimens was not permitted, only field notes, accompanied by photo documentation was undertaken. Two-hundred-and-sixty geometrid moths identified to various hierarchical levels of taxa and one new genus for southern India, are reported.

Claviplatysgen. n. and its type species C.henryisp. n. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Plataspidae: Plataspinae) are described from Kerala, India. The new genus is related to the Indomalayan genera Heterocrates Amyot & Serville, 1843, Cratoplatys Montandon, 1894, and Cronion Bergroth, 1891, but differs from them and all other plataspid genera by the peculiarly modified antenna. The morphological characters and systematic relationships of the above genera are discussed.

Three New Species

AbstractThe Oriental genus Baptista Distant is redescribed and compared with other genera of Old World Microveliinae. The type-species, B. gesiroi Distant, hitherto only known from the type specimens (from Burma), is redescribed and recorded from Thailand. Three new speeies are described: B. femoralis sp. n. (Thailand, West Malaysia), B. digitata sp. n. (Thailand), and B. angulata sp. n. (southern India). These species all live in very cryptic and secluded habitats, like wet litter, small watery holes in rocks, or small cavities under turf along streams. The males of the new species exhibit a remarkable polymorphism in the structure of fore Iegs and pregenital abdomen. A closely related genus, Lathriovelia gen. n., is described with two species, L. capitata sp. n. and L. collaris sp. n., both from West Malaysia. This genus has a head structure which is quite unique within the subfamily.

One new genus and six new species of Encyrtidae are described from the material collected from the Namdapha Tiger Reserve (Arunachal Pradesh). These are: Sharqencyrtus hulbi gen. et sp. nov., Ixodiphagus sureshani sp. nov., Parencyrtomyia zedesi sp. nov., Rhytidothorax horticola sp. nov., R. namdapha sp. nov., and R. ramakrishnai sp. nov. A key to world species of Rhytidothorax is also given. Parencyrtomyia Girault is newly recorded from India, and Rhytidothorax nigrum Singh & Agarwal, Parablatticida brevicornis (Dalman) and Agarwalencyrtus dispar Hayat are new species records from Arunachal Pradesh.

Ramakrishnania is described as a new genus of rust fungi with R. ixorae n.sp as the type species. Distinct features of this genus are the indeterminate growth of the basal cell and the formation of two-celled puccinioid teliospores on septate simple pedicels bilaterally on the elongating basal cell.

Males And Females

A new genus of Naucoridae inhabiting a waterfall in Tamil Nadu state in southern India is described. Pogonocaudina Sites and Zettel NEW GENUS is diagnosed by a dense fringe of long hairs around the perimeter of the posterior abdominal segments, and by both males and females with a single segmented front tarsus with two pretarsal claws. Despite the lack of sexual dimorphism in the forelegs, this new genus is a member of the subfamily Laccocorinae, an assignment based on other characters consistent with this subfamily. Character states of this genus are compared with those of other Asian genera of Laccocorinae. The genus Diaphorocoris is reviewed and two new species are described here: Diaphorocoris arunachalami Sites and Zettel NEW SPECIES and D. kiliyur Sites and Zettel NEW SPECIES. Three species of Diaphorocoris are now known from southern India, and with one other species from Sri Lanka, a total of four species are now known in the genus. A taxonomic key is provided to distinguish all known waterfall-inhabiting Naucoridae in southern India and Sri Lanka.

AbstractA characteristic, sterile lichen genus with homoiomerous thallus containing terpenoids is described, with one subtropical species, Kroswia crystalliferum sp. nov., occurring scattered in Africa from Kenya south to the Cape, southern India (with Sri Lanka) and Taiwan. Another temperate species, Kroswia gemmascens (Nyl.) comb, nov., is restricted to Eastern Asia. in spite of its gelatinous, homoiomerous thallus, the genus appears to belong to the Pannariaceae.
